The HN account was created 2013. Did you create it when you were (18-11=) 7 years old?

Good catch! Yes, I actually did create this account back in 2013 when I was around 7. I was always fascinated by tech and curious about platforms like Hacker News, even if I didn’t fully understand them at the time. It’s been incredible to revisit and actively use the account now that I’m older and diving into building my own projects!

Just a couple of months ago you posted https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41983089, which makes it pretty clear (together with your earlier submissions/comments) that you're not anywhere close to 18 or that this is your first app.

Poster could have had the 5 year old son at 13 you know?

Kids grow up so fast these days, you know.

You were a founder at the age of 10 then for your post from 2016? Doubt
